Toews mini-slump during the playoffs was unfortunate - 2 cups at a young age, but he wasn't as impactful this year. He's still got a high ceiling, but I'd have taken Datsyuk before him.
I think Dionne at 37 is the biggest steal so far.
For me, Belfour is a reach - I think he is near the top of a second tier of goalies after Roy/Brodeur/Hasek/Sawchuk, but there is a wide crop of them. I suppose I look at Kipper and Dryden the same way - nothing wrong with them, but there are just so many comparables.
I admit Fleury was taken a touch early, but I have my reasons.
